It did kind of look like it was about to attack them though. It was a pretty vicious dog.

The poor dog (who in the very end, after it was killed looked like a perfectly norma rottweiler) has been exposed over and over to the gas. If it can drive a person insane, what will it do to a dog?

Oh hahaha. I never considered the reason the dog was going to attack because he was wired from that gas. He was more manaical than Henry Knight. Poor dog. Funny though!

Hounds is one of my fav episodes after Irene. I love the mystery, location/setting, music and the character of Henry.

If I had to pick specific moments (gawd, there are so many!) -

- Sherlock being bored out of his mind at the beginning and begging for the ciggies.
- Sherlock's Mind Palace scene.
- Sherlock lifting his collar and John commenting on it - ha ha.
- Lestrade joining them and seeming so happy by it.
Oh, and Sherlock standing on those rocks with his coat and hair blowing and looking really sexy!

I love nearly everything about this episode!

- John calling him 'Spock'
- John pulling ranks and Sherlock grinning
- Sherlock looking sexy on a rock
- Sherlock looking sexy being covered in blood (that sounds weird!)
- 'like a fairy' lol
- Sherlock manipulating John into drinking the 'drugged' coffee - the looks on his face - priceless!

But most of all I probably love the mind-palace scene, I could watch it forever, it is.. beautiful!

It's interesting, because as a whole this episode doesn't really work for me. Nevertheless there are lots of great scenes in it - it just seems that put together there still is something missing (for me).

My favourite scene would have to be Sherlock apologising to John.
And also:
- Sherlock and John talking to Dr. Stapleton for the first time
- "I need some, get me some!" in 221B
- "Is that why you call yourself Greg?!"
- and yes, the scene in front of the fireplace
